Torque flange measures speed, direction of rotation and angle of rotation, even under difficult ambient conditions
With the new digital torque flange T40B from HBM, the user now has speed measurement with direction of rotation monitoring in addition to torque measurement in one compact system.
The torque flange, which is available with nominal torque ranges from 200 Nm to 10 kNm, can be easily integrated in various applications due to its compact construction. Interferences are practically excluded as data transmission between rotor and stator is digital.
The integrated speed measurement system is magnetic and is therefore insensitive to contamination, for instance dust or oil mist, that may be present in test bench environments or industrial applications. The integrated speed measurement system generates 1024 pulses per revolution, thus enabling very accurate speed measurements even at low speeds.
The T40B, which is used for example in test benches for motors or gears, is a robust system that enables interference-free measurement of torque, speed and direction of rotation, even under difficult industrial ambient conditions.
